Requirements for Supplemental
Messages on Logo Plaques

(1) All supplemental messages must be displayed within
the logo plaque in one horizontal line along the bottom of the plaque. The
supplemental message should be displayed in a color to contrast effectively
with the background of the logo plaque or be separated by a divider bar.

(2) On Interstate Highways and Expressways the
supplemental message must have a minimum letter height of six inches and be
proportional in size on all follow up Supplemental Signs. On Conventional
Highways the supplemental message must have a minimum letter height of four
inches.

(4) Seasonal facilities or facilities that only qualify
with an approved waiver shall be required to display a concise description of
the waived issue. Examples of acceptable messages include, but are not limited
to, “OPEN MAY-SEPT”, “WEEKENDS ONLY”, “OPEN THURS-SUN”.

(5) Supplemental messages with the words “DIESEL”,
“PROPANE”, “24 HOUR”, “RV DUMP”, “RV PARKING”, “RV ACCESS”, “ALT FUELS”,
“BIODIESEL”, or “WiFi”, and/or the abbreviations CNG, EV, or E85, or a
combination of two messages may be used by any business that offers those
products or services. If a business elects to display the circular RV symbol,
it will be the only supplemental message allowed. If a business designated as
an INTERSTATE OASIS is displayed on a Logo Sign, the word “OASIS” may be used
as a supplemental message on its logo plaque.

(6) All supplemental messages and their design on logo
plaques must be approved by the Council.

(7) A seven-year review will be conducted for those
existing logo plaques using separate logo riders following the adoption of this
rule. Logo plaques using separate logo riders must comply with supplemental
message rules when those plaques are replaced with new ones. All logo plaques
must comply with supplemental message rules in ten years following adoption of
this rule.

If Supplemental Logo plaques containing the
supplemental message “OASIS” are not used on the exit ramp, a Trailblazer sign
with a white legend (minimum 6 inch letters) and border on a blue background
must be provided on the exit ramp to indicate the direction and distance to the
Interstate Oasis, unless the Interstate Oasis is clearly visible and
identifiable from the exit ramp. Additional Trailblazer signs may be used, if
determined to be necessary, along the cross road to guide motorists to the
Oasis.
